HC Deb 09 December 1890 vol 349 c749
MR. CUNINGHAME GRAHAM (Lanarkshire, N.W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will lay upon the Table a Return of the number of accidents, fatal or otherwise, that have taken place upon the Manchester Ship Canal during its progress?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. MATTHEWS, Birmingham, E.)

I have not this information in my possession, nor have I the means of ascertaining with anything like certainty what non-fatal accidents have taken place.
